Definition

Specifies that this attribute is imported when a new entry is created in the database, regardless of the synchronization indicator setting.

Use

If this indicator is set, this attribute is always written to the database when a new entry is created.

If an existing entry in the database is to be changed, this indicator is not evaluated. In this case, the import synchronization indicator alone decides whether the attribute in the database is overwritten by the value from the directory.

If the indicator is set and the import synchronization indicator is not set, the value of the attribute can be changed in the database without it being overwritten by the value from the directory during later synchronization runs.

Dependencies

Example

You want to assign a default role to ABAP users that are created by the user master synchronization. However, changes that are then made to the role assignments in ABAP are not to be overwritten again during every synchronization.

To perform this scenario, proceed as follows:

  • Create a mapping from SAP field ACTIVITIGROUPS-AGR_NAME to the "dummy" attribute. Use the mapping function module MAP_CONSTANT and enter the role name as the parameter. For information about using MAP_CONSTANT, see SAP Note 822367.
  • For this mapping, set the indicators "Import Mapping" and "Required when Creating in the Database".
  • Do not set the import synchronization indicator.
